Hecklerspray’s Monday Music Mango: Sigh, The Doughboys, Ringo Starr

by Paul Gibson

Separating the sweet, juicy flesh from the stone and skin of this week’s major label releases. It’s Monday. Just another plain old Monday. Another day of sighs, cries and whys. Why, dear God? Why would you do this to mankind, the very fruits of your celestial loins? Why would you torture us so, when we [...]

Hecklerspray’s Monday Music Mango: Katharine McPhee, Ke$ha

by Paul Gibson

Separating the sweet, juicy flesh from the stone and skin of this week’s major label releases. Look, treat us easy, okay? We’ve overdone it a little bit on all the good stuff that’s bad for you. The wine, the eggnog, the…gingerbread? Seriously? Whatever, point is we’re barely up for this at the moment. But that’s [...]

Hecklerspray’s Monday Music Mango: James Horner, Caroline Herring, Morphine

by Paul Gibson

Separating the sweet, juicy flesh from the stone and skin of this week’s major label releases. Christmas is almost here. We can feel it coming by the nip in the air; we can smell it coming by the everywhere-scent of cinnamon; we can see it coming in the wide-eyed desperation of parents trying to locate [...]

Hecklerspray’s Monday Music Mango: Hollywood Undead, Jimmy Buffett, Snoop Dogg

by Paul Gibson

Separating the sweet, juicy flesh from the stone and skin of this week’s major label releases. We have spent the last week playing with a three-inch remote controlled helicopter. It taught us two lessons. Firstly, three-inch remote controlled helicopters can be “awesome” (us) or “so scary I did a wee and some poop at the [...]

Hecklerspray’s Monday Music Mango: Susan Boyle, Adam Lambert, Chris Moyles

by Paul Gibson

Separating the sweet, juicy flesh from the stone and skin of this week’s major label releases. This is it: the Christmas moneygrab officially starts here. The record companies have been softening us up recently, with small-arms fire from the likes of Sting and Ronan Keating. But this week, they pull the camouflage netting away from [...]

Hecklerspray’s Monday Music Mango: Stereophonics, Ronan Keating And N-Dubz

by Paul Gibson

Separating the sweet, juicy flesh from the stone and skin of this week’s major label releases. Another week, another Monday. Another soul-grinding day of pretending to like your colleagues. Even Dave in security, who will tell you all about his weekend’s sexploits despite the whole office knowing he hasn’t seen any ladybits in fifteen years. [...]

Hecklerspray’s Monday Music Mango: Sting, Bryn Terfel, Brett Anderson

by Paul Gibson

Separating the sweet, juicy flesh from the stone and skin of this week’s major label releases. There have been many songs written about Monday, but they all seem to use the working week’s start as a metaphor for sadness, despair, and classroom shooting rampages. Well, no more: your Mango thinks this is a pretty damn [...]

Hecklerspray’s Monday Music Mango: Wolfmother, Soldiers, Madness

by Paul Gibson

Separating the sweet, juicy flesh from the stone and skin of this week’s major label releases. Yes, yes, we know you’ve missed us. We are well aware of the weeping, the wailing, and the mass suicides. But quit it already, because we’re back after a brief and unexplainable (without breaking certain injunctions which were secured [...]

MySpace Trawl – Nedry

by Matthew Laidlow

We seem to have neglected the wonderful world of glitch recently. To a lot of people, it sounds like a needle has been dragged across a record and the results recorded. We like the sound of something that sounds a bit raw, uncommercial and generally exciting. Fuck your cleanly polished studio sounding production where the [...]

Hecklerspray’s Monday Music Mango: Bruce Springsteen, Matthew Sweet & Susanna Hoffs

by Paul Gibson

Separating the sweet, juicy flesh from the stone and skin of this week’s major label releases. It’s Monday. We feel your pain. But as you waddle into work, weighed down by the enormous turdload you have spent the weekend saving so that you may spend an hour of the boss’s time reading a newspaper this [...]
